- LF014-072: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CLF014-072----. On level, low-lying ground. A raised circular area (diam. 19.8m) enclosed by a much-denuded, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 3.1m; H 0.25m max.). A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded an intervening fosse and an outer bank, and noted that the original entrance was at E. The fosse has since been infilled but its outline (Wth c. 3m) is still identifiable. The outer bank is not visible at ground level. Due to the degraded condition of the bank the entrance is not evident. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 11 January 2012

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
